HRG's Stepping Down Need a Volunteer

HotRodGirl · 07-22-2008, 03:15 PM

Ladies and Gentlemen

I am stepping down from my position as the MI SSR Club Host and WDC host for this next year. My life is taking me in different directions. I will teach anyone that is willing to take it over all the in's and outs of running these events.

It's a tough decision for me to make but one that I need to do right now. I will finish off this year but starting January 1st I will no longer be planning SSR Runs nor running the 2009 WDC.

I hope someone will come forward.....we need some fresh meat here

My

is still very important to me and so are all of you.....but this time I need to put myself first

Please consider this position and speak up in this post if you are interested. I would like to have a replacement by Jan 1st of 2009.

Sincerely,

Debbie

Gotta take care of #1

Debbie, you have done a Fanatic job.

Please reconsider! No body works on a project harder than you, needless to say.

Yes she does a fantastic job but I think what she is trying to tell us is she needs a break.

I agree with our island man. Life's short and ya gotta do what ya gotta do.

I also know that you have pretty big shoes to fill for such a small lady! I know they'll miss being under your guidance up there.

Focks · 07-22-2008, 07:29 PM

I know you will be missed in that department. You have done a magnanamous job running that part of the club.

Here are a few things that have been on my mind....I've been thinking about this since March of this past year.

I love to volunteer my time and find a greater joy doing that then being paid in any job I've held. Right now I need to take my career up a notch which isn't going to allow me the time to plan and participate in runs. I'm not burnt out nor is it the work....working hard never bothered me it's in my nature.

I'll miss it but I also know that anyone can fill these shoes.....Scott???

I have very much enjoyed putting my heart and soul into this title and I know someone out there will also give as much.

I've been looking at a career change and I am strongly considering doing it...need to get my eggs in a row.

Debbie,
Good to hear you're looking to make some positive changes! I hope all works well for you. Sorry to hear it will take you away as our Michigan host. I'm so looking forward to this years WDC and meeting some new fanatics.

See you soon!

Michael

You have been doing a wonderful job for the MI group as well as the Fanatics in general. We will all miss your participation but, If you have a goal in life you cannot get there without the proper amount of effort. Go for it and them come back and tell us how wonderful it is to accomplish what you set out to do. We may miss you in the process but will be happy to help you celebrate in the end.

in a couple years.

Had the opportunity to attend the WDC last year and you made it special.

Now that's what I like to hear

I'm on a mission and will miss you all as much......but I will return my

's not going anywhere

I will be the owner of that baby until I die and have no control over where it goes

Now don't be shy and step on up Michigan members......
This job is easy to do...... qualifications are minimal

You can bow out gracefully and look out for #1....but do not leave the Forum. You do not have anyone's permission.

wildcat66 · 07-22-2008, 09:33 PM

actually you have made it very easy for anyone to step up and continue with as much gusto as you have put into these runs. And it will make everyone even more respectful of the amount of thought and effort you did put into it

New beginnings, bring new ideas and adventures.
Good luck with your new path. I know you will be great at it, no matter the direction you go

Judy this Michigan group has been the best...my heart so loves each of you for bringing diversity into my life

I will do my best to make runs that are planned by whom ever takes it over. A chance to see all of you from time to time will only enrich my life and make for greater success!!! You've all been great supporters!!!!!!!!!!

RUN ROD RUN · 07-22-2008, 09:35 PM

Deb, I’ve been a member of this crazy SSR Fanatic family for almost two years and from reading all the threads and posts of all the events that you have put together, I must say you have gone above and beyond the call of what most folks can do in a lifetime. Yes, you will be hard to replace, but it can and it will be done somehow as this group is a big and strong family that anxious to step up to the plate.
Best of luck on your new career endeavor.
XOXO
